Hes out of control sometimes, and thats the way he is and I love him for it. I wouldnt change one thing about him. Were just like Ying and Yang, me and him, like night and day sometimes. Hes really outspoken and he says what he thinks right away. He's got strong opinions and hes very hard core about being um? Hes not straight-edged, like he doesnt call himself straight-edged but he is just very extreme. Whatever he does is extreme and Im not quite as much like that. "
